Bison edge Jacks for Dakota Cup

MORTON, Minn. - The North Dakota State men's and women's
golf teams combined to beat South Dakota State by eight points, 52-44, for the Dakota Cup on
Sunday at Dacotah Ridge Golf Course.

The annual event used a modified
Stableford scoring system (eight points for a double eagle, five for an eagle,
three for a birdie, one for a par, negative one for a bogey and negative three
for a double bogey or worse) to determine the winner of the two-day event.

The NDSU men scored 62 points (44-18), while the women
scored -10 (-18-8). The University of South Dakota did not post a team score
because two men had to withdraw.

Nathan Anderson led the Bison men with a score of 24 (16-8),
and his twin sister Amy led the women with 28 points (8-20).

This is the first time the Bison have held the Dakota Cup
since the inaugural year of the event in 2005. The Jackrabbits have won every
other year except 2008 when the event was cancelled because of the weather.
